Valve founder Gabe Newell's neural chip company Starfish Neuroscience announced it's developing a custom chip designed for next-generation, minimally invasive brain-computer interfaces—and it may be coming sooner than you think. The company announced in a blog update that it's creating a...

Neuralink, Elon Musk's brain-machine interface (BMI) company, has announced that it has received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to conduct its first tests on humans. The company is developing minimally invasive brain chips which it hopes...

Elon Musk's brain-machine interface (BMI) company Neuralink has been fairly quiet since it last showed off a live trial of the company's implant in a macaque early last year. Although originally scheduled for October 31st, Musk says a "show &...

Varjo, maker of high-end XR headsets, and OpenBCI, a company creating open source brain-computer interface solutions, today announced a new partnership that's bringing OpenBCI's long-awaited neural interface 'Galea' to Varjo’s latest Aero VR headset, something the companies say will...

Snap announced it's acquired neurotech startup NextMind, a Paris-based company known for creating a $400 pint-sized brain-computer interface (BCI). In a blog post, Snap says NextMind will help drive "long-term augmented reality research efforts within Snap Lab," the company's hardware team...

In a talk at an Auckland, New Zealand area high school back in May, Valve co-founder Gabe Newell revealed they're making "big investments in new headsets and games," something he hopes will prepare the company for a future of...

Neuralink, the brain-machine interface (BMI) company created by Elon Musk, released a video showing off a live trial of its brain implant in a monkey. Using the primate's own recorded brain data, Neuralink demonstrated that the monkey was not...

Valve co-founder Gabe Newell previously revealed Valve was working on a brain-computer interface (BCI) with OpenBCI, the minds behind open source BCI software and hardware solutions. Now Tobii, the eye-tracking firm, announced it's also a partner on the project...

OpenBCI, the neurotech company behind the eponymous open-source brain-computer interface (BCI), are making a new hardware and software platform specifically for immersive headsets. Called Galea, the company says its new hardware is designed to attach to both AR and VR headsets,...

In a presentation showing the latest developments on Neuralink's brain-computer interface, Elon Musk revealed that the company has implanted prototype devices in live pigs, and was able to achieve rudimentary limb-tracking by monitoring activity in the brain. Neuralink is a...

Elon Musk unveiled Neuralink nearly a year ago, and it appears we'll be getting a progress update in August that further details the company's research into brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). Musk announced the event via Twitter earlier this month, however didn't...

Gabe Newell, co-founder of Valve, sat down with IGN for a chat about the company, the promise of VR, and Newell's most bleeding edge project as of late, brain-computer interfaces (BCI). "Personally, the area I'm spending a lot of time on has...

NextMind, a Paris-based brain-computer interface (BCI) startup, debuted a $400 neural interface dev kit at CES this week, something the company intends to release to developers in the first half of 2020. NextMind's device is a non-invasive electroencephalogram (EEG), which...

Whenever I used to think about brain-computer interfaces (BCI), I typically imagined a world where the Internet was served up directly to my mind through cyborg-style neural implants—or basically how it's portrayed in Ghost in the Shell. In that world,...
